Most of the main travel agents are asking around 440/450 quid for the same flights.

Who is Adrian in London? A website address (with secure payment facilities and details of ATOL registration etc), would be preferred over what appears to be nothing more than a private email address.

 

Additionally, Oman, Sri Lankan and Emirates can all be had for less than 500 quid for the same dates.

Right, now where should i start................................

 

Seat didnt recline, on any of the 4 sectors!!!!,

The cabin frame around the window was falling off!!

The staff ( all eastern european), were the rudist people you will ever come across.( the trolly dolley must of thought me being english, that i wouldnt understand any polish. she was wrong, and in a few polish words that i do know, i told her what i thought of her. the chief steward then came to speak to me about my swearing. cheeky fucking bitch).

On 2 sectors, the tray wouldnt come down, as there was no catch on it, so it was held together with chewing gum.!!

My baggage arrived in BKK soaking wet. they wouldnt talk to me about it and refused any kind of compensation.

I had recently had surgery on my cruciate ligiment, but not once, or twice, or even three times, but 4 times she banged the food/drink trolley( she was told after the first knock about my knee) into my knee causing me to jump up and chew her out in front of everyone. no apology from her, chief steward or the airline.( 6 weeks later had to revisit my surgeon for more surgery because of her).

Smallest seatback tv screen i have ever seen.!!

Only 6 movies being played, all on a continous loop.

Shit checkin and a free for all on the boarding of the flight in LHR.

Not some of the nicest smelling passangers in the world, the smell was quite powerful at times.

 

But on a positive note, i did think their food was ok, some of it being prepared/cooked by the onboard chef in first class.

 

I might be biased now, but i will never ever fly such a fucking shit airline again!!

Other than that, it was OK then?

I always had the opinion that they were awful on the ground (check in, boarding etc) but the service on board was ok (back then it seemed to be mostly Middle eastern young males who were great).

Completely opposite for me when I flew, although all 4 sectors were less tha half full which always makes it better.....

 

My sons mate hooked up with a girl and flew Gulf in the summer and said it was excellent and he's taller than me...
